** Description changed: Binary package hint: alsa-utils I run Ubuntu on a Dell Inspiron E1505. This comes with some volume control buttons on the front side of the keyboard. When I was running Hardy, the mute button, volume-up button, and volume-down buttons worked. Now that I upgraded to Intrepid, the mute button no longer works, although the volume-up and volume-down buttons are still fine. Note that I can still mute and unmute through all of the usual GUI interfaces. I believe that the interface between these buttons and GNOME is handled through the Keyboard Shortcuts, which I find under System -> - Preferences. This describe the mute button as XF86AudioMute, which may + Preferences. This describes the mute button as XF86AudioMute, which may or may not be what it called the mute button under Hardy. (The volume- down and volume-up buttons, which work, are called XF86LowerVolume and XF86RaiseVolume.) If I set a new Keyboard Shortcut by pressing the mute button, it returns XF86AudioMute again, but the button still doesn't work.
